HOW PACE CAN HELP

THE PACE ADVANTAGE

PACE participants are served by a comprehensive team of professionals. Participants and their caregivers meet with an interdisciplinary team (IDT) that includes doctors, nurses, therapists, social workers, dietitians, personal care aides, transportation drivers and others. Needs are assessed, and an individualized care plan is developed to respond to all of the participant’s needs, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.

SUPPORTIVE SERVICES
Here are some of the ways that PACE supports you as a participant or caregiver:
- The PACE doctor to patient ratio is very low, nurses and doctors will know your loved-one intimately so care is extremely personal.
- PACE Doctors and medical teams specialize in geriatric care which means no one knows your loved-one’s body better than the PACE team.
- Because the PACE team sets all of your loved-one’s medical appointments, there is no need for you to do this. You also do not have to arrange or pay for transportation to multiple medical facilities.
